Treetops is a great nursery setting. My son has attended since October 2016 in the Clever Crocs pre-school room. I have been extremely pleased with the level of care provided. My son settled in very quickly and is a happy boy who rarely complains about having to go to nursery. The staff make sure all
the children have plenty of activities and regularly base work around topics. I am very pleased with his progress under their care.

My daughter has attended since she was 17 months old for just over a year and we have found Treetops excellent at caring for her. Meals are included which we've found very helpful and adds good variation to her diet as she tends to eat better at nursery than at home.


Staff always phone promptly

if there is any problem (sickness etc) and are very competent and caring. The facilities are good, including a lovely outdoor play area.
Various themes of learning/play keep things interesting from term to term. My daughter enjoys going there and has made nice friends.

Throughout the two years that my son has been at Treetops, I have been delighted with the excellent work of the team there. They are always cheerful, positive and patient. I would always recommend Treetops to friends with children of a similar age.

Since moving our child to Treetops Birlingham, we've had an excellent experience. All the staff helped us to settle our child very quickly and gave continued support to ensure our child was happy.


We receive good ongoing feedback about our child's development and gave us opportunities for our child

to interact across his class, which helped him to settle and develop relationships. The staff are always friendly and very helpful and take time to understand our needs and our child's needs.

My daughter has settled into nursery amazingly well - mostly due to the outstanding staff and management at the nursery.


Her learning is facilitated through outstanding practice and she is able to learn in a loving home from home environment.


My daughter loves nursery and I can't praise the staff

and management enough!

This nursery is excellent. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. My son has loved his time here and they have prepared him well for moving into school. He always leaves with a smile on his face and settled in almost immediately. Staff are very understanding and make my son feel welcomed every time
he comes through the door. I would definitely recommend to anyone around this area to go.

I have never found such an outstanding nursery. From the moment you step in the door, you are made to feel welcome. The setting is extremely clean and more home to home than nursery. My child, I know is in good hands and he is really happy there.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy started in March of 2016 and the staff helped him to settle really quickly into the cubs room. Since then, we have found out that we are expecting another baby, leading to some jealousy. The girls have been fantastic in helping him to understand what is happening and provide activities
to help. Also, we can't fault the support that we have been given with my son, he has already learnt so much and his development is fantastic - we are thankful to Treetops.

When my little girl started at Treetops in June 2016 she was very shy and as a parent, I was scared about leaving her as she had only ever been with family members before. The staff at Treetops nursery helped her settle in really well and reassured me that she was going to be ok. She has learnt so much
since being at Treetops and absolutely loves going to nursery.

My son has been at Treetops Nursery Birlingham since he was 10 months and I was anxious to leave him to go back to work. However, the staff had created a home from home atmosphere for the babies and he was really happy and settled quickly into their "family". He is now leaving to start at the local
pre-school and I really feel they have been instrumental in making him the happy, confident, well spoken little boy he is!


The staff are professional, friendly, confident and very easy to communicate with and over the years, they have been so supportive to us as a family through bereaverment, university and other work/home dramas! They are all very qualified and I would not hesitate to recommend them! They make a great team and my son's key worker is fab!

Review from A R (Father of Child) published on 12 April 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Treetops in Birlingham is absolutely fantastic. Our little boy has only just started but already we feel so relaxed knowing he is being cared for in the best possible environment with the best staff!
The rooms are beautiful and the areas of development covered is amazing, not to mention the range
of activities and fun that the brilliant staff include every child in, both inside and in the beautiful gardens. Our little man is 8 months and we were reluctant to send him to nursery before we saw Treetops and the staff made us feel like one of the family. We have been included in every aspect of settling our son and no question was too silly and the amount of times we called to check on him was irrelevant, the staff were always happy to talk to us and reassure us! The food is fantastic and the staff take extra care to know our sons routine and are helping us tremendously to wean him. Thank you Birlingham Treetops for being amazing!

My son started at Treetops when we moved to the area in September 2015. He settled in really well and it made a huge difference to his speech and confidence. Having classes in age groups has meant he's made real friends, who hopefully will go into the same primary schools. The staff at Treetops couldn't
be nicer! My son loves going to nursery and it's due to the staffs brilliant nature, helping him integrate into the group. The class rooms are lovely, bright and clean; the playground is amazing! By far the best nursery I've seen, also have to mention the food! My son is always talking about his "yummy lunch"!

Treetops Birlingham is a wonderful nursery in a great location. My son of 14 months really enjoys his time at Treetops and is very happy there. My wife and I particularly like the wide range of activities that support development and the individual interests of a child. The manager and staff are very
welcoming and you are always greeted with a friendly smile.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.872)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.872) out of 10 for Busy Bees Birlingham is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.872 for Busy Bees Birlingham is calculated as follows: ( (136 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.872
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Birlingham is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 62 number of registered child places is 12.4, which has been reached with 13 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
